The Program Delivery Lead will work with the Primary Care Organization (PCO)'s National Director of Behavioral Health (BH) Strategy and Operations and behavioral health clinical and operational leaders to oversee operations, performance management, and future-state strategy across the PCO behavioral health portfolio. The portfolio spans three program areas: low- to moderate-acuity mental illness; Serious Mental Illness (SMI) and Substance Use Disorder (SUD); and dementia. The role will report to the PCO's Director of BH Strategy and Operations.
The Program Delivery Lead works on problems of diverse scope and complexity, including designing program operations and improvements, developing analytical performance-management processes and dashboards, addressing day-to-day execution challenges, and supporting the operational needs of clinical and program leadership. The Program Delivery Lead will partner with program medical directors and other clinical and operational leaders on implementation, planning, and execution across the behavioral health portfolio.
The Program Delivery Lead will exercise independent judgment and decision-making to drive job duties and related tasks, demonstrate end-to-end ownership and attention to detail, bring a high caliber of analytic rigor, and have an internally self-motivated working style with confidence to drive work autonomously.
The successful candidate brings strong strategic and operational experience in program operations and performance management, along with a robust analytics toolkit and experience designing and implementing performance-management tools such as dashboards. This position supports care delivery through leadership in strategy, operations, performance management, analytics, and program execution, rather than leading with clinical expertise.
This is a critical role requiring an ownership mindset and the ability to manage multiple processes end-to-end in parallel, in close collaboration with functional and clinical teams.
Major Duties and Responsibilities
- Own program operations and performance management across the behavioral health portfolio, including day-to-day execution, implementation, process improvement, issue resolution, and coordination across the low- to moderate-acuity mental illness, Serious Mental Illness and Substance Use Disorder, and dementia program areas.
- Own the analytics required to manage program performance, including defining KPIs and metric specifications, designing and launching dashboards, conducting data-quality checks, and using insights to monitor access, clinical quality, cost, budgets, forecasts, and operational performance.
- Lead executive reporting at the market, regional, and national levels across behavioral health program areas, translating performance results, risks, opportunities, and program impact into clear, actionable updates for market leaders and PCO executives.
- Partner closely with the EMR product team, clinical analytics, Medical Economics, and other key stakeholders to define metrics, integrate data, and strengthen reporting capabilities.
- Own the business partnership and design input for technical products that support behavioral health programs and PCO clinicians, working in close collaboration with PCO product teams to support delivery.
- Establish and maintain collaborative relationships with strategic stakeholders, including clinical teams, technology partners, data and analytics leaders, external partners, and Complex Care leadership, to support program and project implementation and drive adoption of new strategies and tactics.
- Manage special projects at the request of the National BH Director on an ad hoc basis, supporting a range of operational, process-improvement, and strategic needs.
